Question

Identify the appositive phrase in the following sentence.

The kit fox, a nocturnal hunter, is rarely seen by day.

a-the kit fox
b-a nocturnal hunter
c-is rarely seen by day
d-a nocturnal hunter, is rarely seen by day

Answer 1

Appositive phrases are used to further describe the noun in front of them. Usually, they are set off from the rest of the sentence by commas on either side.
Having this in mind, the correct answer is B. a nocturnal hunter. It fits everything I wrote as an explanation here.
